Electronic device having thermal diffusion structure
Disclosed is an electronic device having a thermal diffusion structure and including a housing comprising a first surface, a second surface facing the first surface, and a third surface vertical to the first surface and the second surface, a display exposed through at least part of the first surface, a battery arranged between the first surface and the second surface, a heating source arranged between the battery and the third surface in a direction vertical to the first surface and the second surface, and a first thermal diffusion member arranged vertically to the first surface and the second surface, the first thermal diffusion member including a first portion in thermal contact with at least part of the heating source and diffusing heat provided by the heating source to at least one second portion.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a housing comprising a first surface, a second surface facing the first surface, and a third surface substantially perpendicular to the first surface and the second surface;
a display exposed through at least part of the first surface;
a battery arranged between the first surface and the second surface;
a heating source arranged between the battery and the third surface, wherein the heating source extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first surface and the second surface;
a first thermal diffusion member arranged substantially perpendicular to the first surface and the second surface,
wherein the first thermal diffusion member includes:
a conductor plate collecting heat of at least part of the heating source,
at least one thermal interfacing material, adjacent to a center of the conductor plate, arranged between a first surface of the conductor plate and the heating source, and
at least one heat pipe thermally coupled to the first surface of the conductor plate,
wherein the conductor plate diffuses heat provided by the heating source to the at least one heat pipe,
